Worth keeping an eye on this one. An unnamed undercover Sunday Times reporter has been accused of having sex with the target of her sting, a dentist believed to be involved in female genital mutilation. Particularly awkward that Omar Addow will not face charges after the CPS suggested the journalist’s version of events was not credible. She denies the claim that she recorded her target offering to carry out FGM on a camera during a visit to his flat in which the pair, as he puts it, “did sex”. Tom Kark QC made the claim yesterday:

“It appears he and the journalist have sexual intercourse. We may form the view that the journalist had gone to extra lengths to get her story.”
